This is the exchange the Savior is asking of us: we are to give up all
our sins, big or small, for the Father’s reward of eternal life. We
are to forget self-justifying stories, excuses, rationalizations,
defense mechanisms, procrastinations, appearances, personal pride,
judgmental thoughts, and doing things our way. We are to separate
ourselves from all worldliness and take upon us the image of God in
our countenances. - Robert C. Gay, "What
Shall a Man Give in Exchange for His Soul?" Ensign (CR)

question, “What will a man give in exchange for his soul?” Satan
would have us sell our lives for the candy bars and championships of
this world. The Savior, however, calls us, without price, to
exchange our sins, to take upon us His countenance, and to take that
into the hearts of those within our reach. For this we may receive
all that God has, which we are told is greater than all the combined
treasures of this earth. Can you even imagine? - Robert
